an emission metric that equates a change in the emission rate of a short-lived pollutant with a one-off CO2 pulse, tracking warming better under mitigation.

In climate science, GWP-star refers to an emission metric that equates a change in the emission rate of a short-lived pollutant with a one-off CO2 pulse, tracking warming better under mitigation. This meaning comes from Allen (2018) in npj Climate and Atmospheric Science.[1]
